Postoperative Pain After İntracanal Procedures

Not Applicable
Conditions
Endodontically Treated Teeth
Registration Number
NCT04892355
Lead Sponsor
Afyonkarahisar Health Sciences University
Brief Summary

Aim: The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of different irrigation activation systems on pain after endodontic treatment in molar teeth with irreversible pulpitis.Post-operative pain values of the participants will be recorded and evaluated with the VAS scale.

Postoperative pain values of the techniques will be compared with statistical evaluation.

Detailed Description

Aim: The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of different irrigation activation systems on pain after endodontic treatment in molar teeth with irreversible pulpitis.Materials and Methods: The study will be carried out on 140 patients with molar teeth diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis. After the root canal preparation is completed, the patients will be divided into 4 groups according to the irrigation activation system; Conventional syringe irrigation (CSI), EDDY, EndoActivator (EA) and Xp-endo Finisher (XPF). After the irrigation process is completed, the root canals will be filled using gutta-percha and canal sealer and the treatment will be completed in one session. Pain values at 6, 24, 48, 72 hours and 7 days after treatment will be evaluated at a 0.05% significance level using the Kruskal-Wallis test.

Postoperative Pain After İntracanal Procedures Based On Different İrrigation Activation Tecniques: A Randomized, Clinical Trialone week(7 days)

Preoperative pain of the patients before the treatment was recorded with the VAS scale. Pain levels were classified as 0: no pain, 1-3: mild pain, 4-6: moderate pain, 7-10: severe pain .After the treatment of the patients, a pain assessment form was given to the patient in order to evaluate the postoperative pain. Patients were asked to mark their pain levels on the VAS scale. The marking procedure was taught to the patients by a blinded researcher from the groups. When the patients came to the control appointment, VAS scales were collected and the data were analyzed.
